Hidden Treasure

A gorgeous cottage with everything we needed. Close to Hauraki Cycle trail which we did as day trips. Lovely hot tub to soak in and washing machine with a small sunporch- great for drying clothes even with the odd showers. The garden and plants are exquisite and you can walk across the road to the Karangahake gorge.
